We've changed to Finet. No contract, no need for residency and only pay when you're here.
Sounds fab, but the downside is that it's unreliable and the customer service is hit and miss.
Overall though I'm not sure it's any worse than our Ttnet service was, and is easier to tolerate the bad points when you're paying half the cost of Ttnet.
They have a website with all the info on it.

No idea offhand, I'm sure the website says where it covers though.

We paid 60 TL to get a box installed and then we pay 35 TL per month when we are here, it is turned off when we are not.  Good connection and we are pleased with it.

We got it through Volkan who had Vojo's at the time he arranged for the Electrician to come and fit the box. We now just pay monthly when we are here.  We get our maintenance company to pay the bill for us before we arrive so we have the net.   Our neighbours came over to see our internet and they got it installed too.
I will p.m. you with details.

that's Finet then

I have a friend who lives in Jacqui's area and she's had no finet problems either.
we were tuned to the Calis station which was fine til it packed up for 4 days
I don't know whether they fixed it but they've tuned our dish to the Fethiye one and its been on and off with power cuts to the station.
so looks like luck of the draw.

Jaquie, does the 35tl give you unlimited use?

Oh, now I'm confused, Volkan was involved with Finet recommendations.

No idea, nothing on the box, no one told us what the system was, the company that fitted it just put the box for in 60 Tl  and we pay them 35TL monthly when we are here,so, whatever is it, it is good, but no name was every mentioned.   So for everyone else, this the card fo the business who fitted it.
